Top Comments of this video!! :3
I noticed that whenever Apple spokespersons discuss the dimensions of their devices they use the term "thin" and "thinness" and never "thick" or "thickness". For example: "It's only 17mm thin." This stands out to me and helps draw attention to the slenderness of the profile of any given item. The word choice has a Chik-fil-a-like "my pleasure" effect - they do things slightly differently and subconsciously create positive associations.

The first time I heard about "Spacial Audio" for air pods I was really confused because when they were explaining it it sounded a lot like 3d audio, but the name was so unique I thought it was something new and more advanced, and then I found out it was just 3d audio. Just shows how well their marketing works.

When you mentioned that thing about "control and not associating with terms that could have a negative effect", I was immediately reminded of what nintendo did with the NES back in the 80s. After the video game crash with Atari in the US, Nintendo's first console in the US market was never once referred to as a "game console", instead being called an "entertainment system" consisting of a "control deck" (the nes itself), making it more reminiscent of a vcr deck and not a console and "game paks", which were the games. Really interesting approach and as history showed, it really did work.

I used to work at Apple. There were words not spoken as a part of the lexicon. When MacBooks were having a bit of a trying time with heat, we could never refer to them as "laptops". We always referred to them as "notebooks". And our training team reported to Marketing so that messaging was unified across from customer to employee.
